Bring your menorahs and candles to join in a special Chanukah celebration at Temple Beth Torah on Friday, December 23, the first night of Chanukah.

The celebration begins at 7:00 PM. Dan Gordon, the rabbi will lead a special Shabbat service that will include the telling of the Chanukah story. The prayers for the first night of Chanukah will be recited, followed by a community lighting of menorahs. It is a breath-taking site to see so many menorahs with candles aglow.

This popular event will offer local residents and those in surrounding areas the merriment of shops, entertainment, vendors, fanciful eateries, artists, Santa Claus, and more. Join neighbors and friends in the highlight of our Christmas season- when treasures from around the world are brought to you and the spirit of the Holidays is warming the hearts all around.
